/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Initialed Armenia-Turkey rapprochement Protocols
contain no stipulations for NKR conflict settlement, depriving
Ankara of a possibility to raise Karabakh issue within Armenia-Turkey
negotiations' framework, Armenian Center for National and International
Studies (ACNIS) Director Richard Giragosian said at "Armenian-Turkish
diplomacy and Nagorno Karabakh: Deal or no deal seminar.
"Washington, too, recognizes Armenia-Turkey rapprochement and NKR
conflict settlement as two different processes. I believe, NKR
conflict and Armenia-Turkey dialogue are interconnected, still it's
important they're not directly linked," ACNIS Director noted, adding
that Yerevan mustn't allow for NKR issue to be set as Armenia-Turkey
rapprochement precondition.
He also stressed that despite Baku's statements, OSCE MG remains
the only format for Karabakh conflict settlement and Turkey does not
belong there.
